We are making a drastic decision

May 6, 2007

Hi All,

we have to get out of here. We are poor, we left everything behind 1.5

years ago to move to another house. The house we are in now, the central air

does not work, and we complained about it so much last year, the landlord said

he'd done all he was going to do, and he would not renew our lease. We have a

choice, spend what we have to get into another potentially moldy place, and live

in a community that is so full of mold, nearly every business is infested. Our

daughter has now developed almost daily nose bleeds, my joints are beginning to

hurt, we found a nice place in New Mexico that we might be able to rent, so we

are packing our van of 194,000+ miles, and our almost $1000, and a tent and we

are camping our way to NM. The following is a letter we are sending out to our

blogs, myspace, etc. We will be offline as of some time tomorrow, I don't know

when our last connection will be. It is NM or bust for us, it is a painful and

long thought out process, but the longer we stay here, even living in a clean

home, the sicker we all get. This town has an epidemic of Asthma, Bronchitis,

Fibromyalgia, ... You know the list, but of course no one believes us. Here is

our final letter until we get connected again. Thank you all for being here and

being understanding of what mold can do to you, but I have to protect my family,

even if it means walking away from everything.

Our letter:

To all of our Internet family,

I am writting this with a very sad heart. We filled out an app., for an

apartment the other day, the last one that we could find that was available

around here. Today the security guard, (former manager now retired), and my

hubby ran into one another at Wal-Mart and he told my hubby that we would be

getting ourselves in a fix moving into the apartment we looked at, because there

had been mold at one point, and they had been battling it since! When we looked

I kept having an issue with my vocal cords hurting for some time after we left,

as well as sinus draining, and a headache. I passed it off as being from the

first apartment we had looked at just before that one. Anyway, the manager is a

good God fearing man, and he told my hubby that with all the allergies our

family has, and how much mold there is here in Shelbyville, and how sick we all

are, that we should pack up our vehicle and head to New Mexico. We originally

wanted to go to New Mexico, but questioined getting there and running into the

same problem, but with the drier desert climate, even though mold exists, it is

not in the abundance it is here and many people with environmental illnesses

find refuge there. We spoke to one woman on the phone who lives there and she

told us there are natural hot mineral spa's there that soaking in them has

greatly increased the detoxification process for her.

We have been in constant Prayer the past few months while we've been looking for

a place to move, and the Praying has increased greatly over the last few weeks.

We firmly believe that God places people and situations in our lives in order to

do His work, and everything is for one reason or another. We have gone through a

lot of pain and suffering the past few years, but we have gained great knowledge

in that time because of our pain and suffering. We are now a book of knowledge

on molds, allergens, and all sorts of toxins that damage our bodies. It's some

seriously scary stuff and we feel God wants us to teach others what we have

learned. There are perhaps millions of people suffering from mystery symptoms

and illnesses who's doctors can not seem to pinpoint or remedy, who may very

well be suffering from the mycotoxins of invisible airborne mold agents called

mold spores which bear with them biotoxins. So we feel it is now our ministry to

educate others and help save others from what we have been through.

That is a situation God has placed in our lives to help Him do His work, saving

others from the pain and suffering we have been through for so many years, and

continue to suffer with. We are a testiment to all of how serious and dangerous

the mold problem has become in our Country.

Now God has placed a gentleman in our lives, the security guard mentioned above

who, when my hubby told him how we were needing to get out of the mold and

wanted to go West, he says, " get in your car and go, even if you only get half

way there, at least your half way and you can find work and get the car fixed

and keep on going " ! Now why would someone say that? He also pointed out that if

we rented the place, we would be out our money and when the mold started taking

a toll and run us off, there would be fines and penalties for breaking the

lease, and what little money we have would be gone and we would be in debt for

the lease. That on top of the fact that myself, hubby, and our handicapped son

all have knee problems, (one of the many joint pains caused by mycotoxins), and

this apartment is on the second floor! Then on top of all this, last night we

received an e-mail from a realtor in New Mexico about a house I found on-line,

and it sounds like we may be able to rent it! It is an awsome looking house,

with no carpet, (allergen sponge), virtually no walls, (walls trap air

circulation which can lead to mold activity), it is one huge room that can be

partitioned into smaller rooms. There is one bedroom off that room that our

daughter would get, and two bathrooms. There is an area for our much needed

veggie garden and to grow our gourds. And the house has irrigation rights! The

house would be perfect for us and our allergies. I find it more than a

coincidence that we received this e-mail last night, and today God sends a man

to tell us " get in your car and go to where your family can heal " !

Anyway, this is much longer than I had meant it to be, I really just wanted to

tell everyone that we would not be on-line for awhile and ask everyone to please

keep our family in your Prayers each day. We will try to get on-line at a WI-FI

somewhere and will post updates as we can.

Thank you all for all your Prayers and love. God Bless you all,

Carmella, Dan and family

P.S. We received our copy of " Mold Warriors " , yesterday, and guess what? We

aren't crazy, LOL

May 6, 2007

We wish you and your family all good things as you make this exciting

change in your lives. Please be sure to keep us posted. You will be

in our thoughts and prayers.

Dan & Carmella,

Fantastic. This is so good to hear and I'm sure you are both going

through some stressful times. Just to let you know we wish you all

the luck in the world and our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Maybe some day we will see you there.

A new life, a new beginning,

KC & Sharon
